Places and monuments [ modifier | Modifier and code ]

• The municipal portion of the Dourdan forest to the north and the woods to the south were identified as natural spaces sensitive by the General Council of Essonne ^{[ 49 ]} .
• Notre-Dame de l’O Ouÿe abbey
• The Saint-Léonard church, which already existed before 1150, was conceded on that date, by Goslin de Lèves, to the Augustinian canons of the abbey of Saint-Chéron-lès-Chartres. In 1170 there is a transaction between the prior and its inhabitants, for “the luminaire of Saint-Barthélemy” ^{[ 50 ]} .
  From the XIII ^{It is} century The priors had difficulties in perceiving the tithe of vintages of the barns, part of the territory was cultivated in vineyards. The Saint-Léonard church shared with that of Dourdan the offerings and the pious legacies of the owners of the country, and its income rose to XII ^{It is} century to around 4000 F. (from 1900, approx. 40,000 F of 2000). In 1217, in front of two canons of Paris, judges delegated by the pope, was signed, at the request of the parties, a transaction between the abbot of Saint-Chéron and the parish priest of the barns “concerning the tithes of the vineyards and the low-knife possessed in Dourdan by the latter ”. The prosecutor of Saint-Chéron claims for the convent these tithes in the name of parish law, and the parish priest of the barns, Barthélemy Jorri, after proof and deliberation, decides to recognize that he will return to good faith in the convent of the Title vines. As for the dining men, as long as he lives, he will collect them on behalf of the monastery and, in recognition, he will have, on the day of the collection of tithes, 2 deniers. After his death, the tithes will return to the monastery.
  His boss, Saint Léonard, was the object of the pilgrimage of the mothers of the region who bore their late children to speak. We see, in the choir and in the middle of the nave, tombstones of XIV ^{It is} century and XV ^{It is} century, which bear the names of the laborers of the parish, especially of the lands of the Abbey of Louye.
  The church has been repeatedly altered: in the 13th, 15th and 17th. There are from the primitive church of the 12th to the western portal. The nave dates from the 13th century, the utmost altar of the 17th century. Its main characteristic is its high square tower which is seen from far away. It was registered in the Historic Monuments the February 17, 1950 ^{[ 51 ]} .
